Full company description
Able Innovations is developing advanced medical devices to tackle the pressing problem of patient transfer in healthcare. The patient transfer equipment in use today is unsafe, inefficient, and undignified for all parties involved. The complex and physically demanding task of transfer leads to a high rate of injuries for care workers and patients. Consequently, patient transfers drain labour resources, costing hospitals billions of dollars annually. Able Innovations intends to extensively enhance the quality of care provision - ultimately improving clinical throughput across healthcare facilities and providing a safe and dignified care experience for patients and caregivers.
